The Afrikaners, descendants of Dutch, French, and German settlers in South Africa, continually moved inland during the 19th century as part of the Great Trek. This migration was driven by a desire for autonomy and to escape British colonial rule in the Cape Colony. They sought to establish independent Boer republics, such as the Orange Free State and the South African Republic (Transvaal), in the interior regions of southern Africa. Their movement significantly impacted the indigenous populations and shaped the region's political landscape.
No, South Africa gained its independence from Britain on May 31, 1910. However, South Africa celebrates its official Independence Day on April 27, to commemorate the day in 1994 when the nation held its first democratic, non-racially discriminatory elections.
Afrikaners, descendants of Dutch, French, and German settlers in South Africa, came into power through a combination of colonial expansion, the establishment of the Boer republics, and their political organization. Following the Great Trek in the 1830s, Afrikaners established independent states such as the Transvaal and the Orange Free State. Their political influence increased significantly with the discovery of gold and diamonds, leading to economic prosperity and eventual control over the South African government after the Anglo-Boer Wars. By the early 20th century, Afrikaners solidified their power through the creation of the Union of South Africa in 1910, which favored their interests and laid the groundwork for apartheid policies.

Unless you can walk on water, this trek is not possible. Your trek would take you across water from England to the south, and through Europe to the Bosphorus crossing into Africa. When you reach the tip of South Africa, there is nothing but open ocean to cross before reaching Antarctica.

Trek is not that especial to be great. Trek is so much more over and above
Something about the Zulu aggression. And the groups that had the tension that resulted in the great trek also went to war in 1899.
